moderate closed Hiking · Haus-Aich-Gössenberg

Current Conditions
Elevated on 11/04/24

The 8-seater gondola and the 4-seater “Quattralpina” chairlift will remain closed in summer 2024 due to construction work. Only the Schladminger Tauern cable car is in operation from Haus in Ennstal. Since the construction site stretches across the transmitter plateau, all hiking and cycling paths and play stations located there are also closed. The main hiking routes such as. the Schafsinn circular route, the summit circular route, the children's adventure trail and much more will therefore not be available as usual. The family offers such as downhill disc golf, petting zoo, children's adventure trail and various play stations on the mountain will not be available in summer 2024. The exception is the Schafsinn pond - there the unsupervised offers such as: Barefoot path, sheep via ferrata, sheep jumping, etc. - excluding water zorbing - are available. The Wollis Kids Park in the valley is open for children and families.

Hiking trails that are not accessible:

  • Schafsinn circular route
  • Children's adventure trail
  • Summit circular route

Beautiful panoramic views and huts, where you get something to eat and drink. Observation decks with seating and information boards about the project and the surrounding mountains.

Turn-by-turn directions

Den großen Höhenunterschied überwindet man gemütlich mit der Schladminger Tauern Seilbahn oder Hauser Kaibling 8er Gondelbahn & 4er Sessellift Quattralpina. Eine herrliche Aussicht über das gesamte obere Ennstal erwartet uns. Von der Bergstation geht es ein paar Minuten leicht bergan, wo dann direkt beim Fernsehsender der Schafsinn-Rundweg links in Richtung Osten abzweigt. Dort sehen wir bald die große "Schafbox", dem eigentlichen Ausgangspunkt des Rundwanderweges. Dieser ist durchgehend beschildert und führt sodann in leichtem auf und ab im Uhrzeigersinn rund um den Hauser Kaibling auf den Rossfeldsattel. Von dort geht es leicht absteigend in die Kaiblingalm. Diese ist für Familien mit Kinderwagen von der anderen Seite über den Forstweg gut erreichbar, über welchen wir auch wieder die Bergstation der Seilbahn erreichen.

Der Rundwanderweg besteht aus zwei Abschnitten:1. für trittsichere Wanderer (1 h 45 min)2. für Kinderwagen und gemütliche Spazierer (40 min)wunderschöner Panoramablick und EinkehrmöglichkeitenAussichtsplattformen mit Sitzgelegenheiten und Infotafeln über das Projekt und die umliegende Bergwelt.
